My Dad wore those soft grey sweatshirts- mainly because they hid the hair of his beloved Dalmatian Ramses. That dog was his true love, best friend and child. Those 2 were inseparable. I couldn't understand their relationship until I got Frida. Dalmatians are one owner dogs too. Ramses tolerated anyone else besides my Dad. He would sit at the top of the stairs when my Dad left and wait dedicatedly until he returned. I would joke that Ramses ate better in college than I did. My Dad would buy him his own hamburger when they went for lunch. I ate Ramen Noodles. When he died a little piece of my Dad died. Thanks for sharing this poem. Rylee and Frida
